What a great scene captured. When I was at school with a few hundred other awful girls we secretly gossiped about one of the nuns who talked to the plants (not too meanly but we 12 year olds had decided she was mad). Of course when I grew up a bit and had learned a bit more about the world I found that it was the nun that was right and not we smart girls – of course we should respect and talk to our fellow earthly inhabitants whenever we can.
